Lord, let your glory fall?

Following my last study project on The Sovereignty of God in Romans 9 I'm going to spend the next five months looking at the question of:

How to preach 2 Chronicles 1-7?

This combines my two major interests of the church/presence-of-God/temple with my interest in developing a Christian understanding and application of the Old Testament. The ideas isn't just to do something theoretical but to engage with the text and a way that results in life changing application to the life of the Christian. I've not looked much at 2 Chronicles before apart from doing a re-write on Matt Redman's Lord, let your glory fall a couple of years ago.

If anyone has any ideas, tips on useful sermons or study guides on 2 Chronicles that'd be much appreciated!

When Moses heard your voice / His face was radiantHe would not go alone / But only follow youAnd in the promised land / They built a house for youYour dwelling was with them / And so they praised your name

You are good, you are good and your love enduresYou are good, you are good and your love endures today!

We hear the promise of old / Dry bones restored to lifeWhen you will be our God / And we will be your sonsWe long for that great day / When you come to usWe’ll live in your house / The lamb and his Redeemed

You came and lived with us / Light in the darknessWith wonders, works and words / Your grace was made knownThen under darkened skies / Your glory was revealedThe king upon his cross / The Saviour of the world

Sent us into the world / In your Spirit’s powerTo speak the word of life / That all might know your nameAnd with each new dawn / We long for your returnWhen we will see your face / And your great name exalt
